Phuket, Thailand: Top Destination for Retirees

In today's world, many people are looking for new ways to save on money while still living in a favorable area. People look to a variety of places all over the world that offer them great value for housing, entertainment, and medical services at reasonable prices. Thailand has become a very popular destination for all types of people who are looking to live comfortably while still getting high quality services. At KASY Nurse Travel Companion, we have nurses with ER and ICU backgrounds that have years of experience in accompanying people world-wide to reach the destination of their dreams. Whether it be for medical or leisure purposes, we offer the safety and comfort you need for traveling. 

Phuket, Thailand

We have discovered many advantages of the culture and life in Thailand. In one of our previous posts, "Medical Tourism is at a High Point", we explored the beautiful and world-renowned Bumrungrad Hospital located in Bangkok, Thailand about 9 and 1/2 hours north-east of Phuket, Thailand. Bumrungrad Hospital has become one of the top hospitals for expats and anyone who wants to undergo high quality medical procedures at a fraction of the price when compared to the United States. Procedures in the fields of cosmetic and plastic surgery are in demand from people all around the world and they have been getting more and more popular due to their great reputation abroad.

After learning more about Bangkok and its famous Bumrungrad Hospital, we discovered Phuket, Thailand which supplies a multitude of attractions. First and foremost, is the beautiful beach life and being that it's Thailand's largest island creates an array of activities for its inhabitants. The water is warm, clear, and wonderfully inviting making it easy for anyone to fall in love with this city. The name Phuket is derived from the Malay word bukit which means 'hill' and that's how this city appears from a distance.

Top Destination for Retirees

Phuket, Thailand has transformed into a multicultural and international retirement destination. 100,000 foreign residents have made their homes here and 21 percent of Phuket's total population is made up of expats. The biggest appeal for anyone considering moving to this top city is the cost of living. Rent can range between $350 to $400 a month! Keep in mind this is not mediocre living here, these places come fully furnished and offer very comfortable living. If you take into account all of your expenses such as food, utilities, entertainment, and simple transportation, you can easily live on a monthly budget of $1000 and that is for two people!

Entertainment is in abundance with late night partying in Patong, the beach town in Phuket's west coast. If that's not your style, there are fantastic golf courses spread throughout the island as well as beautiful international restaurants. Just north or south of Patong are more peaceful coastal towns that have smaller villages.

The Best Medical Care 

One main reason this city is so appealing to retirees, is the fact that everything is available on the island. This includes top of the line medical care along with Thailand's second largest international airport. Not only does Bangkok have top-notch medical care, but Phuket also provides high quality medical care for 20 to 80 percent less than what medical services go for in the U.S. According to expats, the medical care can be far more superior that what is offered in the U.S.

Phuket offers beautiful green scenery along with amazing weather. The city is also not too big or crowded perfect for anyone who wants to bring their family and create a home. Schools and education are a highlight of the city drawing in families who want to build their lives here.

The Prime Destination: Hawaii

On one of my recent trips, I visited Hawaii and it is by far the best place I have visited.  I LOVE Hawaii!

My impression: picturesque, magnificent landscape, exotic, vibrant, warm and genuinely nice people.  

Driving some of the narrow streets was not frightening at all, because Hawaiian drivers have manners!  They actually let you pass ahead of them instead of speeding up to make sure you won't be in the front.

Honolulu's famous downtown boulevard where Ala Moana shopping center is located is quite magnificent!

The boulevard is similar to the Las Vegas strip in that it is a long straight street.  The difference, of course, is that instead of all the hotels and lights, there are an abundance of beautiful, high-end designer stores: Armani, Louis Vutton, Gucci, you name it.  

There are beautiful torches on the side of the street that compliment the ambiance too.  It's an awesome sight and people are out and about constantly walking!  The famous Wakiki Beach was captivating indeed. 

Hawaii is at the top of the list for retirement destinations according to US News and AARP.  Its top Hospital is Queen's Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii.  

Hawaii is a must-see!  

Not only is the scenery breathtaking, but the culture and people are amazing.

The Emergence of Baby Boomers

There is a population on the rise: the baby boomer generation.  With this emergence, there is immense opportunity in many areas of the economy.  The rise of baby boomers demand destinations for retirement.  Many baby boomers are more than willing to pay top dollar to retire in an area that provides all the amenities and aspects that fulfill their desires.

One top city chosen for retirement is San Diego.  Being a native of San Diego, I can easily see why this is a top choice.  The city is beautiful, the weather is nearly perfect, and just the overall atmosphere and culture put your mind at ease.  It's a big city but the people are so warm and welcoming.  

 Just another day in sunny San Diego.  Taken from the Coronado bridge.

Medical Tourism: A Huge Opportunity for Emerging Nations

Some of the current trends of emerging nations are into developing medical tourism industries.  

Thailand has been on the game and is increasingly becoming popular.  

The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has specifically outlined everything you need to know about medical treatments in Thailand.  

Treatments include cosmetic/plastic surgery, lasik, dental, and other treatments that are not offered in the U.S. such as stem cell treatment for beauty rejuvenation.     

Tourists are saving immensely on medical costs while still enjoying high quality healthcare.  

Countries likes Thailand also do not have the strict FDA regulations and threats of malpractice lawsuits that are a big influence in the American Healthcare industry.

ObamaCare. Switching things up.

Varying opinions regarding the ObamaCare permeate in almost every conversation.  

Fear of the overall cost is the general feeling.  

Medical Insurances such as United Health Group (UHG), Highmark, Blue Cross and Blue Shield are already starting to bolster their brand by opening centers in the mall, the way other companies sell clothes or electronics.  

The staff offers help in different languages, checks blood pressure, and drug interactions while potential buyers peruse through the medical plan.  

Open enrollment commences this coming October.
